How much of an improvement will these polyurethane control arms bushings give me?
My car is a 2003 Honda Element awd. How much a of a handling improvement will it give me through curves percentage wise? Say I can take a curve at 80 mph, how much faster could I go through that same curve with these bushings (front and rear)?
It will cost you about $430 for the labor and $251 for the parts. Since you'll be charging this on your credit card(s), this will "improve" your outstanding debt to almost $11,000 dollars.
If mortgaging your future is what you want to do, then polyurethane control arms bushings will definitely meet your needs.
Are you still on administrative leave from the Home Depot for the drug testing issue?
Not anymore. I got the job back and I'm fortune and happy about it
Who knows not me…
No improvement unless your existing bushings are worn out. If that is the case you will see an improvement.
None, it's your springs and sway bars that matter.
Save your money for when the trans goes out along with the AC compressor imploding.
80.002mph.
Maybe. Good waste of several hundred dollars.
- Will Powerflex polyurethane bushings help my car achieve better handling and corner faster? My car is an 03 Honda Element awd and there's a brand called Powerflex that makes polyurethane bushings specifically for each car. In my case, for my front and rear anti sway bars they offer "street" and "race" polyurethane bushings for my Honda.
- What tires will give me an improvement over the ones I have now(picture shown)? I have a 2003 Honda Element awd and I want to improve the handling/stability at higher highway speeds through curves and corners. However, they have to be all season tires. My car can do 85-90 mph through most highway curves. I want good safe/grippy tires that will help me take that at 95-100 mph. What tires would be good without compromising all season tires?
- How much does the engine itself of each of these bikes weigh? Yamaha YZF R6 Suzuki GSX 600 Honda CBR600RR? They are all ~600cc. Kgs would be preferable but its easy enough to convert the weights. I can't find their engine weights anywhere.
- How many miles per gallon does a motorcycle give? Much cheaper than a car? Some idio actually said a while back that a motorcycle doesn't really give that many more miles per gallon than a car! This honda Rebel gives 84 miles per gallon! http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/...l-250.aspx And an msrp of only $4000 makes it a steal! Plus the legendary reliability of a honda!
